While Drew Barrymore reflected on her past relationship with Luke Wilson on an episode of her talk show, she also shared details about the fling in the 2003 book "Drew Barrymore: The Biography" by Lucy Ellis. Barrymore and Wilson collided while filming the 1997 comedy "Best Men," initially meeting in director Tamra Davis' kitchen.
"He was the prince around a silver refrigerator," Barrymore said. "I didn't believe in love at first sight before I had met him, I kind of had to be clobbered over the head to get it. When I looked around [the refrigerator], Luke was on the other side. That was it, and my life changed."
While Barrymore felt an instant connection to Wilson, Ellis explains that it wasn't until the end of filming neared that Wilson asked out his co-star. "It seemed natural," Wilson said. "She makes you feel at ease. She's so smart and funny and ready to laugh." Even then, the two decided to keep the details of their relationship low-key, departing from Barrymore's typical M.O. of the time.
